const fs = require('fs');
var express = require('express');
var app = express();
var path = require('path');
var Chart = require('chart.js');
var result =[3,6,9];

app.get('/', function(req, res){
    let _resLine = '<h1>Ereignisse: ' + result+'</h1>';
    console.log('show chart:');
    console.log(_resLine);

    _html = "<script src='https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/Chart.js/2.5.0/Chart.min.js'></script>"+
    "<canvas id='bar-chart' width='800' height='450'></canvas>"+
    "<script>"+
    "var logChart = new Chart(document.getElementById('bar-chart'), {"+

We are missing some context here but I assume that if a is your data and you can access it from this template, you can do something like this:

                   data: {
                   labels: ['Morning', 'Afternoon', 'Night'],
                   datasets: [{
                       label: 'My First dataset',
                       backgroundColor: 'rgb(255, 99, 132)',
                       borderColor: 'rgb(255, 99, 132)',
                       data: a
                   }]
               }
